Each collage blends together my love of coloring, research and the English language. Daily you'll find me collecting or researching quotes or sayings on a particular subject. These quotes are then attached in a whimsical way to a hand-colored picture and complemented by pieces of paper with art, stickers or photographs on them. The end result being a collage that can inspire, encourage, or even make you laugh.

Collages are designed for subjects such as sports, special occasions, pets, friends and family members. All artwork is sealed and framed. Sizes range from 11"x14" to 2.5"x3.5". Pricing range: $5 to $25. Most are in the $12-$15 range. Search through the Gallery and let me know if you see one you like or would like to place an order for a one-of-a-kind collage at no additional cost.

Consider giving them as a gift, decorating the walls of your office, waiting room or any room in the home. Yes! Even the bathroom. Tired of boring art scenes adorning your walls? The Art and Word Collages are sure to invite conversation, evoke memories and inspire everyday living.

The idea for these collage creations came during a long weekend stay in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina. With time to relax and enjoy the beauty of the cabin and secluded environment, I was inspired to use the hand-colored patterns and designs to create Art and Word Collages.
